What a sleepy way to start the week; with an amazing pyjama party! We had been working so hard that we had filled up our jar with 40 shells! We had chosen to be like ‘Polly Jean Pyjama Queen’ and wear our pyjamas to school. In Literacy, we enjoyed writing sentences about our pyjamas. We …
Today we began our final week of our ‘People Who Help Us’ topic by learning about builders and refuse collectors. In ‘Busy Fingers’ we played a game called ‘What’s Rubbish’. We had to move counters around the board and each time we landed on a piece of rubbish we had to decide if we could …
